MANCHESTER, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ConEst Software Systems, the leading technology innovator of takeoff, estimating, and project management software for electrical, data cabling, and low voltage contractors, today announced that the company’s JobTrac™ project management solution has earned a 2012 Showstopper Award at the NECA 2012 Conference being held Sept. 29-Oct. 2 in Las Vegas.

The NECA Showstopper Showcase and Awards are one of the most prestigious recognition events in the electrical construction industry, and spotlight new or ground-breaking products and services designed to help electrical contractors on the job.

ConEst’s JobTrac provides complete project management capabilities, including the ability for field personnel to communicate with the office using smartphone and tablet integration. On-time and on-budget completion of all projects is supported through JobTrac’s contract change order management and communications control system. JobTrac gives contractors full control of their projects by tracking budgeted and completed labor, material, equipment, and subcontractors – including all modifications to the original contract.

According to George Hague, president and CEO of ConEst, “Our suite of products have been designed and developed to work in concert with each other and to specifically address the need for, and complete the process of, full-cycle job costing. Full-cycle job costing is a highly-effective process that electrical contractors can employ no matter what the prevailing economic conditions may be: challenging, recovering, or booming.”

ConEst’s JobTrac project management software automatically hands back completed project information to the company’s IntelliBid estimating software program, and that information is then used to correct and improve existing estimates before they are presented to the customer.

ConEst Software Systems is exhibiting at NECA 2012 in booth 1443.
